Chapter 18: Your Majesty summons

Lynn is now looking at Zhou Lang like looking at a piece of jade with excellent qualifications.

I was very satisfied.

As long as you carefully carve it, this son will become a pillar of talent in the future!

With Zhou Lang, he came directly to the wind and rain corridor connected to the East Palace and the Imperial Palace.

Walk through the layers of guards of the Thousand Cow Guard.

Along the way, Zhou Lang gradually figured out the current situation.

It's all the trouble caused by those two poems.

I didn't expect to directly alarm His Majesty the Emperor!

Only then did he realize that everything was going on in the Imperial City.

In fact, it is all under the control of His Majesty.

His father once warned Zhou Lang to either become a monk together.

Or stay away from the Great Zhou Dynasty to ensure the safety of your life in the future.

It seems that my father's worries are not groundless.

What should I do now?

When you see the emperor for a while, how should you deal with it?

Walk through the palace gates and continue through the gardens and palace complex.

Zhou Lang has already thought it through.

For a while, whether His Majesty bestows him an official position or not, he can't ask for it.

Even if His Majesty doesn't like himself, he must not fail to figure out anything.

He was given an official position and stepped into this dangerous situation.

After the teacher and student walked through a garden.

I have come to the door of a palace.

There are guarded Qianniu guards everywhere, and there are two teams of palace maids and chamberlains standing outside the palace gate.

In the middle of the main entrance, the old man who announced the decree was already waiting.

"I've seen Mr. Gao."

"Zhou Lang, this is the senior manager who has served His Majesty for more than forty years."

Lynn nodded to the chamberlain and immediately turned back to remind.

"It turned out to be Uncle Gao."

"Juniors meet seniors."

Zhou Lang hurriedly saluted.

Lynn was stunned when he heard this, it was the first time he had seen the prince of the royal family.

actually greeted a eunuch in the palace as a junior.

Although he is the manager, his identity is there.

I didn't expect Mr. Gao to be agile sideways.

The fat body actually cleverly avoided Zhou Lang's worship.

"The old slave is just a servant who serves His Majesty."

"I don't deserve such a great gift from the son of the world."

"Come in, two of you."

Mr. Gao said with a smile.

The two entered the gate and passed through the rows of palace maids in the front yard.

Zhou Lang has opened his eyes, within the academy of the ancient emperors.

There are so many people waiting.

I just came to the door of the main hall of the study.

Then I heard a burst of words from inside.

"Your Majesty, the southwest and northwest must set a strategy as soon as possible."

"The minister suggested that the northwest should not be able to hold on."

"Just block the way of the Turkic invasion to the south."

"The bandits in the southwest must be eliminated as soon as possible, and Your Majesty only needs to send one or two thousand legions."

"Quickly defeat the southwestern Tu tribe and drive them back into the mountains."

A man's voice said.

"Master Zhu, this plan of yours."

"The lower officials don't agree."

"The bandits in the southwest are among the mountains, and the southwest Tu clan is not so easy to exterminate!"

"Fourteen years ago, His Majesty once sent an army of 50,000."

"It lasted for a year, and it only drove out those Tu tribes."

"Now the biggest trouble in my Great Zhou is the Turkic invasion in the northwest."

"Your Majesty, the minister suggests that the southwest should be defended, and the northwest must send an envoy to negotiate peace as soon as possible."

"We must wait until the Great Zhou army has enough food to clear the Turkic trouble!"

Another cheerful man said.

Zhou Lang heard it very clearly, this was another problem at the border of the Great Zhou.

And it's two places in danger at the same time.

Southwest Turks, Northwest Turkic ......

I'll it, there are also Turks in this era!

Zhou Lang remembered very well that the Turks were the henchmen who threatened the Central Plains for nearly a thousand years after the Xiongnu!

From the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms to the Tang Dynasty, they were all deeply invaded by the Turks.

Until modern times, there are still people who continue to make trouble in the name of the Turks!

"You wait here, go and have a look for the teacher."

"Wait for Your Majesty to summon you."

When Lynn heard the voices inside, she told her to walk to the gate.

The chamberlain opened the door, and he hurried into the study.

"Your Majesty, the suggestion of Lord Zhu and His Royal Highness King Han just now."

"Wechen can't agree!"

"It's not once or twice that the Turks invaded the border."

"Wechen suggested that heavy troops must be sent to deter the Turks."

"The southwest allows military towns from all over the country to mobilize troops to help."

"The issue of military rations is up to the local governments to figure out their own solutions."

Lynn said loudly.

"You don't need to argue."

"I said that these two things will be discussed in two days."

"Let me think about it."

The emperor was a little troubled by their quarrels.

The Turks are strong and have been constantly invading the northern and northwestern borders.

However, the Turkic cavalry was extremely cunning and would never engage the defenders of the Great Zhou Dynasty head-on.

Instead, they relied on the elite cavalry to constantly attack those remote areas.

If he did not take precautions, the Turkic governor drove straight into the plundering counties.

If troops were sent to disperse the defense, the Turkic cavalry would gather in one place.

Defeat the level with a strong force, and the losses will be even more serious!

The troubles of the southwestern Tu tribe gave the emperor even more headaches.

The mountains in the southwest stretch are not conducive to heavy conscription.

Relying on the geographical advantage, the Tu people plundered villages and county towns whenever they had the opportunity.

The Great Zhou defenders were exhausted......

Thousands of Tu tribes can make tens of thousands of defenders run around and get nothing.

What's worse is that there are too many military rations lost.

It is not conducive to the dispatch of large armies.

Moreover, in the past two years, there have been continuous droughts or heavy rains in various parts of the Great Zhou.

The grain in the treasury is getting smaller and smaller, and it can no longer withstand such losses.

The emperor thought about it for several days, but he never came up with a satisfactory plan.

The brow was already furrowed.

"Your Majesty, it's not that you're in a hurry."

"It's the border military newspaper that comes in every day."

"The military situation is getting more and more critical!"

"The generals on the border are waiting for the will of the imperial court."

"We have to give an answer as soon as possible."

Another minister urged.

"You urge me every day to give my will."

"But who of you has a suitable idea for me?"

"Now the treasury is getting less and less food and grass, and the people everywhere are waiting to eat."

"If they are all taken against the southwest and northwest, they will not wait for the border to be safe."

"My Great Zhou world has long been in civil strife!"

The Emperor shouted angrily.

At this moment, the study suddenly became a lot quieter.

Zhou Lang secretly praised it in his heart.

His Majesty the Emperor is still very wise.

I know that we must stabilize the people in the world, otherwise external and internal turmoil will come.

That's the biggest crisis!

Unexpectedly, the current Great Zhou world.

There is still a big trouble looming.

Waiting for the emperor to summon him, Zhou Lang silently calculated in his heart.

Suddenly, I remembered ancient history.

It was as if there was the same history, which he had seen......

"Is the prince of Linping County outside?"

The Emperor's voice broke the brief silence.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"The prince of Linping County was summoned to ask for a meeting."

"Waiting outside the door."

Gao Gonggong replied.

"Let him in."

The Emperor said.

I saw the door open, and inside the wide study.

More than a dozen pairs of eyes stared at Zhou Lang outside the door.

When he saw it, he was slightly worried.

I didn't expect there to be so many ministers standing in the study!
